Saturday, August 26, 2023 - Quest for the 6th Principal Meridian PLSS Point of Beginning begins with some side attractions

flood mitigation???



Onward this Saturday - Quest for the 6th Principal Meridian PLSS Point of Beginning. 10 hour drive, cross the bridge of vines, hike up the trail of mud only to find the marker for the 40* parallel.

maybe why this is hard to find? See the posts and barbed wire running up the slope?



next on Saturday - Quest continues via the Prius 108 miles West to the True Point of Beginning... and some other thing

couldn't find here - told at www.hmdb.org



Sunday, August 27, 2023 - A few new and unexpected finds on the way home
